Samsung Wallet arrived last June, bringing Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass under one roof. It’s been rolling out globally since, the Korean company now announcing the service is expanding to eight new markets, bringing the total to 29.
The new regions are Australia, Brazil, Canada, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, Singapore, and Taiwan, and the roll-out is scheduled for the end of January.
Samsung Wallet is a one-stop service for all types of cards – credit and debit, library cards, memberships and gift cards and even some digital supported keys, as well as digital assets such as blockchain wallets.
Samsung partners with some car manufacturers like BMW and Hyundai to allow the digital key function for a range of models. The legacy of Samsung Pass also brings password management and access to cryptocurrencies.
